I haven't solved my BSD problem but I did discover that there are BSD ports of Zope and Zope products maintained at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=zope&stype=all I haven't been able to get the port to work yet but I suspect that it's because I don't have root access to the server. That will have to wait till Monday when the *senior* tech support guys are on duty. I called my webhost tech support last night and I happened to ask which version of BSD they used. The 'technician' replied, and I quote: "BSD? What does that do? I've never heard of it." I pointed out that BSD was the version of Unix on all his host servers. At least he made me feel like less of Unix newbie. :) Lee Hunter Hum Communications Ltd.

I'm trying to build Zope on a BSD server.
According to the install.txt I have to run two commands - "python w_pcgi.py" and "./start".
I managed to get the first command to run (python w_pcgi.py) after editing my Makefile.pre.in and do.py as per the FAQ.txt.
But when I when I run the second command (./start) I get the following error message:
media2: {38} % ./start Traceback (innermost last): File "/magma/users/u21/wake/zope/z2.py", line 554, in ? exec "import "+MODULE in {} File "<string>", line 1, in ? File "/magma/users/u21/wake/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py", line 94, in ? import ZODB, ZODB.ZApplication, imp File "/magma/users/u21/wake/zope/lib/python/ZODB/__init__.py", line 85, in ? import sys, ExtensionClass, TimeStamp, cPersistence, Persistence ImportError: No module named ExtensionClass
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
TIA
